I have had this for years, it has a Bell System Decal on it.

Was the decal added after or is this the real deal.

Cool Spot Oiler....Doug

The decal is probably legit.  I have one like it, but in much worse condition, and no decal.  But it is highly likely that it was Telephone Company surplus.  It may have had a decal that was worn off.

He posts an oiler like yours, and a different version with a finer nozzle.
I have one of each.
